Functions of Algebra
Students use technology graph and evaluate linear inequalities. They write and manipulate inequalities for use on a graphing calculator. In addition they apply their skills to analyze inequalities. Answer Key included.
Curated OER
Equations and Inequalities Projects
Students compose equations and inequalities whose solutions are the integers 1-31 and utilize them to number one month of a calendar. They take notes on two ways to work backwards from a solution: by using the number and by setting x...
Curated OER
Inequalities Compound Fram
Students practice graphing compound inequalities. They draw a Venn Diagram on two different sports visualizing that their is a middle section on commonality among the two sports groups and then relate that concept to compound inequalities.
